Letter of resignation

I am sorry to inform you that I am leaving (Company Name). This was a difficult decision, as working for (Company Name) has been a positive experience and one for which I am thankful. I have learned a great deal here, and have enjoyed working on our projects with you. However, career enhancement opportunities have led me to accept a position with another company. This final decision was reached only after thorough consideration.

In order to lessen the impact of my departure I have postponed the effective date of my leaving until two weeks after the date of this letter.

I wish continued success to (Company Name), to your projects, and to you. Please feel free to contact me after I leave if I can be of any assistance.

Please accept this letter as my formal resignation as (position) for (Company Name) to become effective as of (Date). I have accepted a position in (State, place).

I believe this position will offer me more challenge and opportunity for advancement as well as allow me to broaden my own skills, experience and knowledge.

I want to take this opportunity to thank you and (Company Name) for your time and efforts in my training and advancement during the last (time period). The support and concern shown for me has been deeply appreciated. There will be no need for the extension for a counter offer as I would not look favorably upon it.

I wish you and the company continued success, and should you need my assistance in any way, please do not hesitate to let me know.
